Hey! Food's up! Wow!

This is the first time in YEARS I've seen him happy.

To the ship! It's like he's come back.

M'lady! Oh, thank you, sir. You're welcome!

If you deny things and push them down, it's toxic.

I saw you.

She knows about last night.

It's shit behaviour! On the first night of a holiday!

You know, there are always going to be some differences in attitudes

with an age gap that big. Who cares what people think?

Shit!

Will you please not tell Solomon?

I think I would like to swap rooms.

Can I have a sandwich? QUIETLY: Yes. In a minute.

But I'm hungry. I know you are.

Give me a minute. Please.

KNOCK ON DOOR

Zoe.

DOOR HANDLE RATTLES

Er, let's go. Come on.

I'll get you some lunch now.

CHILDREN LAUGH AND CHATTER

SOLOMON, ON VIDEO: I am Chiron,

leader of the southern army and Xylor.

Are you having a nice birthday?

Er, yeah.

Oh, I've just being bitten to shit.

Oh... Try not to scratch.

I'll go and see what's going on. Mmm.

Erm, Dan, shall we do presents without her?

Er, well, she's... She's having a lie-in.

It... It... Just, it's three o'clock.

No, it's 2.48.

NAT CHUCKLES

OK.

Have you sent it?

No, I'm just checking I've got the lines right.

Dad, do you want to play backgammon now?

No, sorry. Not right now, sweetheart.

I've got this audition tape.

But you're going to freak when you hear what it's for.

What's it for?

Is it a movie? Ah...

I can read the lines in for you. Thanks, Lea.

But Jess is helping me out.

I'm an actress. I know.

But you're a nanny at the moment, though, aren't you?

And if you could have a little tidy up, that'd be really brilliant.

Thank you.

OK!

It's present time! Come on!

We're not waiting for Zoe?

Er, no, no, no, no. She'll be up in a minute.

Yeah, she's just having a lie-in.

Well, she is on holiday, isn't she? Mmm.

Exactly! And you can do what you like on holiday, can't you?

NAT CLEARS THROAT

Oh, God, you shouldn't have!

THEY CHUCKLE

Thanks.

Show them... Show them. Stand up, show them.

There are lots of cats in Greece. It's a thing.

OK. Is it?

It's like a crap dad T-shirt.

It's a joke.

No, I get it. I love it. Thank you. OK.

It's very you.

It's really funny!

It's cute! Put it on! Put it on!

I will do.

Hey.

Oh!

Hey!

Right...

Hi.

How doing?

Have a good night? Yeah, just had some beers on the beach.

It's his birthday. Is it? Mm-hm...

You didn't say. It's not a big deal.

Well, look, I don't want to... If it's your...

I don't want to impose on you. Well, you... You didn't.

You don't have to go.

No? Yeah. Stick around if you want to.

Yeah? Oh, well, I'll go, er...

I'll go get showered and changed, then, if that's...

Yeah. Yeah. OK.

What did...? I'm sorry, but he's taking the piss.

Thinks he can just stay out all night then show up like that.

And on your birthday as well.

I don't want to make a big thing of today, you know?

Does he know how old you are? What? Yeah.

I mean...

I might have "panic lied".

But only by two years or something.

Which is an odd decision.

I get it.

Says a lot that you can't be authentic with him. But I get it.

You're going to love what I've laid on for you.

I've booked it for 6.30. She'll be up by then, won't she?

Yeah. Yeah. No, of course she will, yeah!

Yeah, and we've still got time

for this..thing that I'm going to do.

What if she's ill or something?

It would be really annoying if she'd got dysentery

from drinking the water. She's fine! OK?

She's just having a lie-in! It's not that fucking weird!

MUFFLED: Mum, where have you been?

Mummy! Can I play on your phone?

Guys, can you just give Mummy a break?

No! Hey. Hey.

Can you just go over here and... And do some screen time, please?

Yeah? Race you!

Er...

I win!

Hey...

How did you sleep?

I slept...

..well. Good. Great. Yeah. Yeah. You look like you did.

Er, they got up early, but I've been on it.

ZOE CHUCKLES WRYLY

Do you want a medal?

No.

No, I don't.

Erm...

It's someone's birthday today! Oh...

Happy birthday!

Thank you.

Er, what can I do? What can I get you?

Do you want something, er, to eat?

Erm...

No. No.

Oh, wow, moving straight onto beer.

I like it! Mmm.

Oh...

Do you mind if I...?

Ah...

Don't let the kids see you.

I don't think they can.

Fucking delicious.

Good.

PHONE VIBRATES AND RINGS

Do you need to get that?

No? I'll get it.

Ah.

Hi, Jennifer.

Oh! I've got hold of you - finally!

I've been trying all day!

Zoe never picks up. Yeah. Yeah. Sorry about that.

Erm, how is the house move going?

It's, er... It's stressful, I imagine. Well, it... It is

if you don't want to move house. ZOE SCOFFS

Yeah. And you're doing it completely on your own.

Zoe's father left so much stuff in the attic.

So much rubbish.

And he won't deal with it.

I imagine Sue doesn't want him to. Yeah. That's annoying.

It is! Well, you look well, Dan. ZOE SCOFFS AND CHUCKLES

Thank you, yes. So do you.

Er...

Er... Do you want to say hi to Zoe? She's just relaxing over here.

What?!

Hello!

Hey, Mum. Are you having a lovely time? You look like you are.

Very glam.

I'm taking her out in a minute.

Yeah. Something special...

..for Mummy.

How nice to be taken out!

Well, I'm stuck here, I've got to pack everything up into boxes.

Apparently, I have to.

Er, is it OK if she calls you back in a bit?

Erm... She's having a great time here.

Oh, yes. All right.

Yeah. Bye-bye! Take care!

What are you up to?

Jess has been helping me with this self-tape.

Cool. Yeah.

Can I watch it?

I am Chiron, leader of the southern army and Xylor. You know me of old.

Hmm.

WHISPERS: You could do better.

Oh, OK! Erm...

I'll do it with you. Yeah?

You're about to go out now, aren't you?

Yeah.

Just a little surprise for you.

I want to do it. Come on.

Phone.

Who are you and what do you want?

IN HUSKY VOICE: I am Chiron,

leader of the southern army and Xylor.

You know me of old.

I do.

I remember.

When I look at you...

..I see my future.

HE SIGHS

No.

Oh, sorry, I'm probably putting you off.

I don't think I've got it yet.

I'm not sure about the voice.

Who are you supposed to be?

A centaur.

Half man, half horse.

Is my character half horse as well?

Yes. You're Barbara the centauride queen.

I wish you'd told me that before.

I would have done it very differently.

THEY BOTH CHUCKLE

I don't think we're supposed to worry about the horse bit.

OK!

Do you want a quick look?

Yes.

OK. Oh...

I hate watching myself. Stop, they're good!

You made me believe it, honestly!

Look, you look amazing. Stop!

No! You do!

The light's incredible.

So funny they're doing that.

I know. Yeah.

It's funny.

They've got such a good friendship.

She's been really there for him.

They've shared a lot. Yeah.

I don't think they share everything, though.

I mean, you don't think she would have said anything,

do you?

No.

It's really rare, isn't it, when you have that bond,

but there isn't anything else there romantically, you know?

Definitely.

It's great.

To be friends.

SPRAYING CONTINUES

You look good.

Which is saying something.

THEY CHUCKLE

She means well.

Mmm... Does she?

I mean, she made it very clear she doesn't want me here.

That's not true.

HE SNIFFS

Wow!

What? I'm sick of being bitten.

Yeah. Well, I think you'll be OK tonight.

Just don't stand too near a naked flame.

You're basically a deet-bomb.

SOFTLY: When I look at you...

..I see my future.

You know what you have to do.

Yes.

It's time to sharpen your iron hooves,

gallop across this cursed land

and kick down the palace door.

PHONE BEEPS

That was really good.

Yeah? Yeah. Yeah, it felt good!

Yeah. It was great!

Strangely moved! Really? Yeah!

Hey. Hi. Er, is it OK if we head off now-ish?

There's just a short window of time to do this.

Come on!

THEY PANT

What is it? It's a thing!

Like, er, it's a special thing.

Ta-da!

Remember?

We always said we'd go on a moped round the Greek islands, didn't we?

And stop off at beaches and swim and, you know,

eat feta...and stuff?

Where did you get it?

The housekeeper's husband lent it to me.

He's a nice guy.

Do we need a helmet or...?

No! No.

No, I don't think so.

It's a holiday thing, isn't it?

Come on...

Erm...

Come on! I want to take my girl for a ride!

OK.

Oh! OK...

ENGINE STARTS

Whoa...

Woohoo!

Watch the bushes! Watch the bushes! Agh!

Do you know how to drive this?! Yes.

Oh... Whoa...

How much further is it?

Maybe seven minutes.

Look, it's meant to be incredible.

I think we should just see it through, OK?

OK.

Oh, thank you so much for doing this.

It's a nice thing you do for your friend.

PHONE RINGS

Ugh, my work is a nightmare.

Deborah, what is it?

No, I haven't checked my emails - I'm on holiday!

OK, well, can't you just...?

OK, fine, I'll check. All right.

Holy fuck.

Is everything OK?

Basically, someone's made a complaint to HR,

which is complicated by the fact that I'm HR,

because essentially the complaint is about me.

Erm...

..what is HR?

Fuck!

INSECTS CHIRRUP

Dan, are we... Yeah. ..close?

Yeah, it's just up here. OK.

Yeah.

ZOE GROANS

Yeah? Yeah.

What did I tell you?

Beautiful, isn't it?

Right...

I took out 800 at the airport.

Maybe a grand.

I spent money on the taxi, on the kitty and the boat, OK?

That leaves at least 500. I've looked everywhere.

It was in my purse and now it's gone.

I feel really violated.

I hope you're not saying you think she's stolen it?

Oh, of course not. Well, good! Cos I've given her spending money.

Yeah, but it's not always about the money, though, is it?

Teenagers steal for other reasons.

Attention. She wouldn't do that.

I was 16 not that long ago

and, trust me, you don't know everything that she's up to.

It'll be the cleaner, won't it?

Yeah?

Avery! Come on!

You all right?

The thing is, it's not like I don't get it.

Everyone wants to do that sometimes -

kiss someone new you fancy,

feel that thing just before you do it,

when you know it's going to happen. It's like...

Oh, it's the best feeling ever.

I know you wouldn't. I wouldn't!

But then I've been really fucking tired for seven years!

Yeah.

Right. Look, I know that I can be really...

God, why couldn't you just IMAGINE it, like everyone else?

Just fantasise about it. What's wrong with that?

Everyone has crushes.

You just keep it a secret. It's not real.

You don't do anything about it!

Absolutely. And why her?!

She's so fucking annoying.

And she's a friend.

It's so embarrassing. On, like, a million different levels!

OK. I'm sorry.

I will...do better.

I will start going to the gym again, you know?

And I'll eat less processed food,

I'll sort my gut biome out finally, and then meditate again.

Jeez, I'll get my old job back.

OK? I'll make it all right.

Why does it have to be such hard work?

What? Come on, relationships, they take work, don't they?

Thing is, I feel like I've been working so hard for such a long time

and it... It doesn't feel like I'm getting anywhere.

It's like having a really bad job

and never getting a promotion or any positive feedback.

And I've got an actual one of those as well!

I'm sorry.

I'm sorry that I've let you carry too much.

With the kids.

And with your mum.

WHISPERS: Why does she like you so much?

DAN CHUCKLES

I don't know.

I'm sorry, Zoe.

I-I haven't been there for you.

Something's happening to me.

I've been kind of

seeing things...

..differently.

And I'm not sure what it means exactly. But it's...

It's like the Gods are trying to tell me something, you know?

Life is short.

We're going to die, you know?

Is this it?

I mean, I know where you're coming from.

This is such a beautiful island, and...

And it makes you feel differently and...

..and think about everything.

You know, I get why you said that we should come here.

And, look, I know it's been really, really shit.

But we can make it better.

Yeah?

OK.

ZOE PUFFS

OK...

Dad, I'm just going to going to go and join them. Yeah.

Oh, hi there, lovebirds!

How was your romantic ride?

It was great, thanks. Yeah, great.

Really, really worth visiting.

Come. Please.

Did you go to the temple?

No.

Ah, it's a very special place. An old one.

You can go there to ask the gods your fortune.

Oh! Yes. I have postcards if you want.

Just two euros each. Oh, no, I'm fine. I'm just going to...

So, it was fun, then? See these? It was good. It was really good.

This is so cool! It's amazing! Oh, yay! I am so glad you like it.

It's such a lovely touch.

Where were you? Did you just bang the waiter?

THEY SPLUTTER AND LAUGH

Erm, no, I did not!

I don't just bang random people to mark special occasions.

What does that mean, exactly?

Only when it's my godfather

at my parents' Ruby Wedding anniversary. Stop it!

ALL EXCLAIM

No, no, no! What?! Ian...

Ian was very vulnerable. Ian. And he was grieving and...

Why did we not know about this? And he needed to be seen, and I saw him.

PHONE CHIMES

I saw quite a lot of him.

Sorry... If that's what you need to tell yourself.

No, no, no, it was a physical continuation

of quite a deep conversation.

Is he off to call his parents?

Oh... Stop it. Just saying, I couldn't help it! Don't be so mean.

I feel really fucking old! No. No. You are not!

You should celebrate getting older.

You know, experience, wisdom, everything that comes with it.

It's a beautiful thing.

Yeah, I love old faces. I cannot wait to have one.

Yeah, I mean, what is there not to be happy about?

It's death, really, isn't it? Getting closer to death.

Babe, I don't think you should worry about death.

I don't think that's something to worry about.

Er, hey, sorry, erm....

This is Dash and Mickey, everyone.

Hi. Welcome.

Jacob, everyone...

Happy Birthday! Happy Birthday! I didn't know they were coming.

No, yeah. Sorry, I said we were doing dinner.

They didn't actually confirm anything. I... Is that...?

Yeah. Course, yeah, we'll need a bigger table!

Erm, is it possible to add a table onto the end here?

No, no, I'm sorry, I need the space.

Maybe it would work better if you guys sat at that table?

What, like a kids' table?

Yeah, like a kids' table.

Er, OK.

Kids' table it is! Let's... Let's go and sit down.

Erm... Sorry, I know that's a bit...

No, it's so fine. What do they want to drink?

Erm, can I grab this? Is that OK? Yeah, yeah, yeah. Great.

Would they rather beer, or...? Er, well, we can order ours, when...

Sorry.

Hi!

I want to hear all about it. Shall we order another bottle?

Yes.

I mean, shall I get some jelly and ice cream for that table?

Oh, my God, stop. Stop! No? Or curly straws?

Salut...

I am Lea. Salut. Jon.

T'es francais? Tu viens de France?

Non.

Where are you from? Are you from this island?

But you're not Greek. Jon isn't a Greek name.

Where are you from? Paris.

I can ask you, right? She's from...

Rickmansworth.

Rickmansworth.

Yeah, but what does that mean, "I am from here, you're from there"?

Well, it doesn't matter.

Yeah.

Sorry... No, it's OK. It's nice, er, talking to you guys,

practise my English.

Mmm. Your English is really good.

Thanks.

You're welcome.

Lea?

Avery, are you watching the kids?!

SHE MUTTERS

Well, erm...

I'll talk to you later.

See ya.

You two have a thing, no?

I don't know what you're talking about.

Well...I see you! OK.

LEA CHUCKLES

Let's go!

Yo. What's up?

Hey, guys. Hey.

Has everyone tried everything? Hmm. It's so good.

Good. Great. Incredible.

PHONE VIBRATES

Just got to get this.

Who is it? Hello?

No! No! No. No. Jesus!

You kids being good over there?

Yes! Yes. Nice T-shirt.

Thank you. It was a present.

We can go and hang at the beach later.

Yeah. Oh, "hang"? Shut up!

I'm sorry.

Right, so I want to hear more about...

Why are you saying sorry to him?

I feel bad they're not on the same table as us.

Why do YOU feel bad? We didn't know that they were coming.

I hope they don't expect us to pay for them.

They're just having a good time. OK.

Two secs.

CHATTER AND LAUGHTER

It's so good to see you both looking so happy.

Sometimes that's all it takes, isn't it,

just spending some time together?

Wait, was the moped ride your idea?

No.

I just thought it would be a good idea

for you guys to do something fun.

Oh, my God.

I can't even remember...who suggested it.

Why does it... Why does it matter?

DAN CLEARS THROAT

Er, is... Is work going well? Yeah!

Yeah, we have, erm...

..a new, organic baby occasion wear range

that's really popular, actually.

Yeah, it's doing really well, it's cool. Congratulations.

Thanks.

It's not all...

..I don't know...

..complete bullshit?

SHE CHUCKLES

Oh...

Ah...

You didn't need to use all of them.

It's OK, I'll just, er...

Oh, OK, that's smudged that.

It's fine. It's fine, it's fine. Look, look, look, look.

Have you got a...something to...? Thanks.

Why would you do that?

I just want to help.

Oh, you want to...help. Why would I want you to help?

OK, you're sounding a little bit aggressive right now, Zoe.

It's Jacob's birthday. I know! I know that!

Orla's got the tape.

She says it got a lot of light and shade, which is good, you know.

Nice. Have you tried the vine leaves? They're so good.

No, I haven't, but I certainly will.

Yeah, they're really...

They're really lemony, sort of, yeah, fresh. Mmm.

Look...

I really care about you guys.

And I have to be honest.

I think you just both really need to talk.

You...

You think WE need to talk?

Yeah, I do, actually.

I've read a lot about it, I've listened to a lot of podcasts.

I mean, it's... It's just all about communication.

Really?! Yeah!

I think if you can both find some space to share your feelings,

be really honest about your needs,

and look at which ones maybe aren't being met,

to listen to both perspectives -

you know, to fix boundaries like we have done -

I honestly think you'll be a lot happier.

BLADE RASPS

Solomon...

Hello?

It's not MY birthday!

Jess and Dan got off with each other on the first night.

SNIGGERING

I'm sorry it was me who had to tell you.

It wasn't, actually.

I already know.

What? Jess told me on the way down here.

But, listen, let's talk about this later.

OK, everyone, get back to dinner.

Why later? I think we should get it all out in the open now!

Because it won't be very nice for everyone.

Why are you protecting Jess?

Zoe, I'm thinking about Dan. What?

I don't blame him.

Jess doesn't hold any anger towards him either.

He did something he probably regrets now.

ZOE SCOFFS

What HE did? You think he kissed her?

Yeah, Jess told me everything.

Why did you tell him that?

Because that's what happened. It's not!

You kissed him too!

I saw you! With my eyes!

Zoe, with all due respect...

..why would I do that?

Why would I kiss him? Sorry, but...

It's 42.

Oh, my dad just turned 42!

Happy birthday.

Oh, no, I'm good. Thank you. Thank you.

Right. Ah, OK. Thanks.

GUITAR PLAYS

Go on, babe.

Hey! Hey! Hey! Woo!

Opa!

How are we going to do this?

I only had a starter. It's all starters.

I'll get this.

Erm... Oh, sorry, we only take, er, cash.

I didn't know that.

Er... I don't have any, babe.

I'll get it. You don't have to do that. No. No.

I'll come back and pay later. I can pay tomorrow, right?

Thanks, Dan. Oh, thanks, mate.

Cheers. OK.

So you DO take cards!

Meh. Bad reception.

I got it.

There you go.

KEYS BEEP

I'm sorry. Declined.

That's weird.

Hmm. Er, maybe your machine's not working.

Shall I try again?

No. I'll get this. No, no, it's good.

No, no, it's fine, I've got it. Here you go.

KEYS BEEP

Yeah, that's great.

Right. Thank you, sir. Thank you. Thanks. Thanks, babe.

No worries. Thank you.

Thanks. Oh, pleasure.

CHATTER AND LAUGHTER IN DISTANCE

Hey. Hey, slow down. What's wrong?

Why'd you do that? I didn't know they were going to make you dance.

But it was quite funny! Why'd you do the cake?

I thought you'd want a cake! I said I didn't want a big thing.

No-one actually means that.

Why did you tell him how old I am?

That wasn't nice. It wasn't deliberate! Really?

No! I'd never want to upset you.

But I do think you should own who you are and be proud of it.

That's not up to you!

Well, I've had a shit day too, thank you for asking!

And if it's any consolation,

I've spent the whole day trying to make your day fucking special!

Do you even appreciate that? I do appreciate that, Nat,

but it does sometimes feel like you want everything to be about you.

Hey. Shall I...

Shall I come up with you and then we can chill or...?

You guys go and have a good time. I, er...

I want to be on my own.

Yeah, yeah, all right, no worries. Cool.

WAVES CRASH

Hey. Hey.

I'm sorry.

Don't be. No, I shouldn't have done that.

I'm just...

..so angry.

I get it.

It's good to get angry.

But I think we should just let this one go.

Whatever happened...

..it was childish.

It was acting out.

We just need to move on.

Dan loves you. Of course he does.

Zoe, don't! Come on.

Oh... Hey. Fuck.

Why can't I just be angry?

Why do I have to fucking start crying?!

It's OK to feel things.

I wish I could do that a bit more of that sometimes.

Hey...

..you are the best person that I know.

Everything's going to be all right.

Come here.

Thank you. Of course.

Erm...

I should... Yeah. Go.

BOTH CHUCKLE

DOOR CREAKS OPEN

Hi.

I don't give a shit how old you are.

Idiot.

Thanks for dinner. Goodnight.

Hey. Hey.

Hey. I'm sorry.

OK? I don't know how many times I can say sorry before you believe me.

I do believe you.

I'm not sure I know what exactly you're sorry for.

I believe you're sorry you fucked up.

But it's too late.

Let's just go home.

Let's go. Tomorrow.

I don't want to go home.

No, hey, we'll go home and we'll see the counsellor, OK?

SHE SCOFFS

Hey, we'll work it out.

We won't.

I don't want to be good any more.

I want to be happy.

And I don't want to be married to you.

Zo... Zo...

Zoe?

Zoe?!
